We all love flowers, right? The beautiful colours, glorious scents and stunning soft petals. Well the news gets even better:

Research has proven that flowers have positive benefits for mental health and can in fact encourage workplace creativity.

​I recently read an interesting blog that was written by Leah Pooley, which sums up the benefits of flowers in the following ways:

Flowers make the receiver happy - this not only applies to the immediate moment that the flowers arrive, but also long afterwards.

Flowers make the giver happy - 88% of people who took part in the research reported that they felt positive after having given flowers to someone else.

Being around flowers promotes long-term happiness - studies have shown that when frequently around flowers, people feel less stress and are less likely to feel symptoms of depression.

Flowers in the workplace make staff more creative - studies have drawn a correlation between there being flowers in the workplace and staff members having more ideas and being more creative - this applies to both men and women.

Flowers promote a connection between people and create a warmer, more welcoming environment - giving flowers, talking about flowers and matching flowers to your organisation's brand all create a talking point and a way to connect with others, keeping loneliness and isolation at bay.

Flowers have a positive impact when people are sick - research has found that having flowers in hospital rooms actually has a positive impact on individuals and promotes a swifter recovery.

All this is great news, and even better news is that with our competitive pricing, beautiful designs and FREE delivery in Cardiff city centre, flowers can be easily sent to someone you care about, spreading positive vibes into their environment.
